No way I could take that dude seriously. He's skittish like a frightened mouse, and talks with a slight lisp. I turned the video off less than one minute into it.
He's the biggest guy in the PUA business. You wouldn't pay $3,000 to be taught by him?
I never even heard of the guy until I came to Roosh V forum.

"Wise man told me don't argue with fools cause people from the distance can't tell who is who"
The worst decision of the so called manosphere was starting real battle with feminist sphere by attacking them. Think about it, simply by responding to girl power front in such manner those bloggers instantly become just as bad as those feminist say they were. Basically they voluntarily leveled themselves and started living to women stereotypes. The failed the fucking shittest. Ooops.
From legacy standpoint it was super fucking dumb move unless of course all they wanted was to put the cat among the pigeons and enjoy the show a bit. This is why most people don't take all those men blogs seriously [but they could have]. It's not about whether manosphere is right or wrong per se but rather it's about that off putting toxic tone of the posts or the need to mock their opposition. It's like, who the fuck cares what competition thinks? or whether they get affected or not? or even what they feel at all about us? or how bad some ugly bitch looks?
Instead they should have just ignored all those lame women movements and kept fueling the fire why manoshere is awesome for regular guy. If you are manosphere blogger/activist just do your thing, IGNORE the haters completely, NEVER respond to anything, post good interesting positive stuff, create your tribe and lead the way. Success is the best revenge.
Just my 2 cents

If I believed in the advice of some members here this forum wouldn't even exist in the first place.

Speaking from a larger cultural perspective, the manosphere is following in the tradition of gangsta rap, Hunter S. Thompson, early punk, Frank Zappa, the Stones, HL Mencken, Eminem, JD Salinger and "Fight Club." All were considered offensive and "affronts to polite society" once; all are considered groundbreaking now.
The fact that the adult establishment is putting out warning signs saying "Danger! Rudeness! Misogyny! They're baaaaaa!" will only make young guys become even more interested.
They claim manosphere thinking is "regressive" and "Nazi-like." Someone needs to tell them biological imperatives are the problem, not the people addressing them honestly.

The general rule is that you will always come out ahead by provoking a rhetorical fight or argument with someone or some group in a superior position to yours. This is because if that person or group chooses to acknowledge your attack and respond, they have essentially elevated you on to their platform. They have made you their equal by acknowledging you as an opponent.
In today's society, it's inarguable that feminism is culturally in a superior position to the manopshere. This is why Roosh's troll piece on the 9 Ugliest Feminists was not only a humorous takedown, but also strategically sound. He got a great deal of exposure that he otherwise wouldn't have received, and the feminists who bit on his troll bait not only made themselves look stupid, petty and hypocritical, but inadvertently elevated Roosh onto their mainstream platform and gave him mad free advertising.

Truth be told, a lot of the 'PUA' stuff looks very impressive in cleverly edited videos and stuff. Ross Jeffries looks like some sort of magical being in his videos and in anecdotes about him...But in real life, on a consistent basis, sure it works SOME OF THE TIME, but in reality it's a numbers game, plain and simple. Great game can increase success percentages, but its a number game.
That said, vis-a-vis Ross Jeffries, is it for real? Because his methods are straight up different to anything else. Is it actually for real, because it looks damn impressive, albeit it weird.

I love how they attempt to classify the manosphere as "proto-fascist" when in fact feminism lobbies the power of the state at every turn. Welfare to subsidize slut behavior, affirmative action quotas to guarantee education and employment regardless of merit, government protection of abortion, successful lobbying to receive preferential treatment in divorce court including no-fault divorce, state sanctioned alimony and child support, government subsidized birth control, attempts at hate speech laws, a legal apparatus that doesn't punish false rape claims, federal bailout money appropriated to create jobs specifically for women, etc. The list goes on and on, and that is to say nothing of the army of private organizations like NOW, the SPLC, and hundreds of others that lobby government.
Yet what do I want as a member of the manosphere? A return to classical liberalism without state interference in our lives and a return to traditional social norms that evolved over thousands of years.
Who exactly are the proto-fascists? Not the manosphere.
Who are out right fascists?
Feminists.
Damn straight brother.

The thing about the manosphere attacking feminists is that prior to the existence of the manosphere, the feminists were above criticism.
That's why there's such a shitstorm at the moment, these feminists have spent such a long time being agreed with or ignored that they don't even understand what opposition is. As a result (this is my educated guess), the manosphere gets a huge amount of attention, which in turn increases it's power as more converts consider joining. The manosphere didn't become a real threat until the feminists decided to engage.

This is actually how Abraham Lincoln became president - he challenged Stephan Douglas, who was MUCH more popular than Douglas.
Lincoln took Douglas to the debates and crushed him, gaining national popularity in the process, and eventually taking presidency.
Before those debates, however, Lincoln was a nobody. So yeah, mocking the feminists and drawing them in to attack us helps the manosphere's exposure much more than it hurts.
But the entire voting public at that time was familiar with Douglas. So it would make sense to attack a feminist celebrity like Rosie O'Donnell. But the only people familiar with names in the true "feminist community" are other radical feminists. Outside of their little blogs and twitter feeds, those people have no platform. They're not on TV debating Dr Phil or Piers Morgan, whereas PUAs have.
The manosphere already seems to be bigger than this handful of radical feminist bloggers.
